Good lush midi cassidy into this speedmeister jaunty shuffler. Bruce and weir aim high. Inspired smooth flow. Propulsive coda. Zoo wee mama!

Another gorgeous headlong peggy for caves and knolls, formidable 90's new age orb head textures. Rosebud arpeggiation takes off gloriously in solos.

intensely hot pan seared Bruce version. Five alarm chaw with thematic accompaniment and hootenany feelings

Wow.... major LLR with cresting, soaring Jerry leads and a warm, resonant Weir lead vocal. donna's soft voice before the final build is absolutely beautiful. We rarely get to hear it.

awesome late ship. Chugging, clear, and resourceful.

Slightly mystified as to why this is top 5, seeing as the solo does not reach the soaring peaks of two nights prior, or of Duke 1978, to name two examples
